Talk:From the Earth to the Moon
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There's far too much information about Space Mountain. This is the wrong article for it. Also, "fabulous" has no place in an encyclopedia article. --Drogo Knotwise 20:03, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Picture
What is the picture supposed to be of? Even looking at the larger size, I can't see anything resembling the columbiad (or much of anything at all, for that matter). I think we should find a better pic, but short of that I have to say I think having no picture at all would still be better than this. Kafziel 18:18, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
- I've replaced it with two pics from the same edition, one of the projectile and one of the columbiad going off. Kafziel 21:32, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] A fallacy in From E to M?
If I remember from the footnotes a long time ago, E to M contains a fallacy about the Earth rising over the 'horizon' of the moon. To whit: from the surface of the moon the earth doesn't rise, it stays where it is and changes phase. If you are on the back of the moon , you never see Earth. If you're in the middle of the 'front', Earth sits overhead.--Eddie | Talk 09:10, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
